Abstract
Abstract A process for producing a polymer having crosslinked structure, which comprises reacting a polymer having in the molecule a partial structure of the formula: <IMAGE> with an oxazoline derivative of the general formula: <IMAGE> wherein n is an integer of 1 to 4; R is an n-valent aromatic hydrocarbon radical; R1, R2, R3 and R4 are respectively the same or different hydrogen or alkyls having not more than 3 carbon atoms. The polymer shows an excellent adherence, and is of great industrial value as coatings, adhesives and molding materials with by far improved heat and solvent resistance.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim
110 words
A process for producing a polymer having a crosslinked structure, which comprises reacting a polymer having in its molecule a partial structure of the formula: ##STR8## with an oxazoline derivative of the formula: ##STR9## wherein R is a di-valent aromatic hydrocarbon radical, and R 1 , R 2 , R 3 and R 4 , which may be the same or different, are hydrogen or alkyl having not more than 3 carbon atoms, the ratio of the number of the oxazoline rings in the oxazoline derivative relative to each one of the partial structures of the formula: ##STR10## in the polymer being within the range of about 1.5 to 3.0.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
110 words
